100th Post Giveaway!

I'm"Spreading the Love"for my100th Post Giveaway!!I've decided to giveaway TWO prizes in celebration of this special day! Keep scrolling down to see the prizes.

Prize #1

(everything in the picture above including Chocolate!)

One is a cute Valentine Mini Purse filled with 100bitty bits & pieces of Valentine Fabric from the Sandy Gervais collection called "Hearts A Flutter." It came out two collections ago in 2007 if I remember correctly. It's been one of my favorite Valentine Collections especially since it has so much variety.

The purse will contain 4 squares each of 25 different prints in red, pink, and cream for a total of 100 squares in celebration of my 100 bloggy posts!

The second prize is one of the Love Note Pillows as seen in a previous blog. When this collection came out a few years ago I loved it so much I bought a 1/2 yard of every piece in the collection. It called my name the minute I walked in the quilt store and saw it. Some fabric just speaks to me . . . BUY ME and take ME HOME!!!

Prize #2Love Note Pillow with Valentine Card.

Please Note: Many thanks go to Suzie @ littlebusybee.blogspot.com for the mini purse idea. I loved the idea!!! I just LOVE small things, always have, always will! She has put together a great tutorial on how to make them. You can find the tutorial here. It will take you right to the post but you'll have to scroll down a bit before you'll see it.

These are my version of Suzie's Mini Purses.

Help me celebrate this milestone by leaving a comment and spreading the love. I'm trying to break my comment record of 19 comments (you all helped me break my record yesterday with the pre-giveaway hype) and I need your help to do it again, many thanks!

Leave a comment and I will put your name in ONE time.

Blog about it on your blog and I will put your name in FIVE additional times.

Have your friends tell me you sent them and your name goes in another FIVE times.

Please email me at kimberlywalus (at) mac (dot) com and let me know that you've blogged about it on your blog so I can make sure to add your entries into the drawing.

If you could help me save time looking for your email addresses that would be great. Just add your email to your comment and then I can get back with you. Thanks!

I'll pick two winners on February 1st at 10am and will mail the prizes off the next day so it arrives before Valentine's Day. Good Luck Everyone!
